WASHINGTON – Whistleblower disclosures made to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), show that former Special Counsel Jack Smith swept up communications from over a dozen national media outlets as part of the “Arctic Frost” election investigation into President Trump.
“What will the partisan media say about this disgraceful government overreach? This wasn’t a normal prosecution by any means,” Grassley said.
Nearly 50 journalists from the following news outlets had their communications swept up by Smith, including messages exchanged with government sources.
